The SF2 Hyper Fighting Thread

Any footage of old HF Tournaments? Preferably Jeff and Tomo…

Out of curiosity, how does a person go about using that hitbox hack for the sf2tj rom? I’ve tried different ideas but no hitboxes. Enlighten please.

I’m bored and I’m kind of curious about a few moves that always seemed interesting

Soooo… are people ever gona get off thier asses and play thier matches?
Im thinking it will be funny to see this tournament pass the 1 year mark in a couple of months.

yes 1 FUCKING YEAR

All the people who played their matches quickly are out of the tournament already lol :stuck_out_tongue:

Ha, what can I do here. I can’t kick people coss there is only 4 left…
*I think I might have to kick the Dude since I have not even seem him in months. The other I think are around, just hiding…

btw, would a 10 month tournament be a world record?

still working on my cps1 rog, if anyone sees me in the ST lobby on ggpo and wants a few games on HSF2, gimme a holla :woot:

had some great mirror matches with apoc a few weeks ago, that TAP assault is something else man :confused: couple games in and he’d got the dust off those 5 hit combos :wgrin: i need to work on making that j.HP/HK, st.LP, dash LK, st.LP, dash LK my main combo on dizzied opponents. but i’m liking the grimy cr.LK x2, st.LK, dash LK; then walk up throw :lovin:

and ggs to cray as well, looking forward to more games mate

Ok guys, Im gona have to cut Decoy. So Poda & Old Masta, and Adoket & Dude, pls play your matches.

I’ve been trying to record Supercade replays using fraps, which are now back up here:
Supercade - Replays
I’ve had some problems since u need to use ‘experimental’ video mode, and Supercade doesn’t allow it. As described here:
http://shoryuken.com/f177/how-record-ggpo-fba-mame-168896/
http://shoryuken.com/f177/recording-supercade-match-ups-235240/
You can apparently open the files in nFBA which does allow the experimental mode, but I can’t figure out how to just get the file from the Supercade site, rather than it auto replay in the program. Also, my monitor wont allow me to use 16bit colour in fullscreen mode, only 32bit. The guide recomends 16bit, tho i dont know if this is a requirement, or just recomended for better performance?

Any help appreciated.

Ok Decoy has contacted me, pls can you guys make sure you get someone to record your matches if U use GGPO, if not just link to the Supercade replay. Also, I think a move to best of 5 for these final matches is suitable.

I’ve already been doing best of 5. Do you mean best of 7 for the finals only? Anyway, I only use Supercade now for HF. The desyncs are too annoying on GGPO.

I thought you were joking when you told me this tourney wouldn’t finish until 2011.

btw does anyone want to play HF with me? I’ve played HF on ggpo and it seemed fine but if you wanna use supercade or something I’m cool with that. I’ve never used it but I don’t mind setting it up.

Well you can use HSF2, speed 1, HF charas only, thats what most have been doing.

I ‘was’ joking, seems the entrants took it seriously tho… See above method for playing stable HF on GGPO also :wink:

Btw Poda, has Decoy contacted u now? He contacted me, but Im gona have to cut him if he doesnt play soon…

This is ridiculous.

How difficult is it for people to matchmake and play their matches? Of do they just not give a fuck?

Well they don’t even have to matchmake, I’ve done that. While I do think its kinda funny that a tourney has lasted 1 year, I’m mostly dissapointed because I started the tourney with the intention of helping to build some momentum for the HF scene (into something like the vibrant C.E scene) and ultimately have regular online tournies like this one. The way things have panned out shows that there is no possibility of that happening…
It still makes me really dissapointed when I see how active C.E is online, it shows how much potential there is for HF, even among younger players. It would really help if Mame and GGPO fixed the technical issues also. Im sure that if alot of the people who played C.E saw that there was regular comp on HF (without desync etc issues), alot would switch over to unarguably the superior game…

Yeah, I don’t really see why CE gets play much at all anymore.

On a happier note, here are a couple of super close Sim vs Guile matches between me and Paskis from the recently re-instated Supercade replay archives:

Thanks to Paskis for capturing (damn my FRAPS gremlins…)

glad to see you still fighting for HF crayfish. I miss HF, have not played since HDremix and sfiv came out… but I kinda hate HD remix and running out of steam on ssfIV, I should get back into this game.

much respect sir.

hey Crayfish, PM me if you’re down for some games. I use GGPO HSF2.

Speaking of which, just found this vid on C.E to H.F upgrade for CPS1 arcade board owners:

Good to hear from U complexz. iirc, were you once a carribian resident? I’ve been trying to get to speak to someone about the scene there.

Sure, tho you would be better of PMing any of the US bracket guys linked to in the first post. Pings would be waay better.

sorry man, I’m from canada.

I think, like you said Crayfish, it’s the technical issues that have hurt the HF scene the most. Supercade is really the only place to play an emulated version of HF that runs properly. Problem is that very few people know this fact.

Personally, I’m trying to get on HF in Supercade more regularly now (usually late at night), and I know Poda is lurking on there just about 24/7. Even Damdai is rocking out HF lately, and I’ve seen some recent Old Mastah replays listed. So if you’re in the US and want some games, jump on Supercade. The connections are pretty decent if you stick to players in your home country. (Canada is close enough for us yanks :P)

btw, nice quote complexz
